Blimp is a transcriptional repressor that has been identified in humans, mice and frogs. Here, we describe the cloning of the gene that encodes for the chick homolog of Blimp, cBlimp-1, and the tempo-spatial expression pattern of cBlimp-1, during chick development. cBlimp-1 whose gene product shares a high level of identity with its homologs from other organisms, was found to be expressed in the apical ectodermal ridge and posterior dorsal ectoderm of developing limb buds. In addition, cBlimp-1 is expressed in the developing eyes, branchial arches and otic placodes. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
